Healey Raises Another Breeze in the
House of Commons

Healey Raises Another Breeze in the
House Of Commons.
LONDON. May Shit M. Healy, in the
House of Commons this afternoon, asked
what answer had been returned by the
Government to the letter of Patrick Egan
Treasurer of the old Land League, offering
to return to Dublin and stand trial for the
charges against him, provided the venue in
his case was not moved from Dublin.
Colonel King Hartman, Parliamentary
Secretary for Ireland, replied that no an
swer had been sent for the reason that no
such letter had been received Laughter. |
Healy requested w. II. Smith, First Lord
of the Treasury, to state if it was the in
tention of the Government to sanction the
conduct of Balfour, Chief Secretary for
Ireland, in deliberately abst2ining from
coming into the House until the questions
on the paper relating to Ireland are all
over.
Smith submitted that that sort of ques-
ton should not be put. The exigencies re.
quired Balfour to attend to business con-
necred with his department of the Govern
ment outside the House, and in the inter-
val replies to questions respecting Irish af-
fairs were adequately given by the Parlia-
mentary Under Secretary Colonel King
Harman.

direct attention to the matter
Speaker Peei-0rderl This interruption
is most supplementary.
Arthur O'Connor intimated that in con-
sequence of the attitude of the Govern
ment in the Times charges, he refused to
continue to serve as member of the Com
mission OF Inquiry into the Civil Service.
The House went into committee, and the
consideration of the Irish Crimes Act
amendment bill was resumed.
Clancy (Nationalist moved an amend,
ment to the effect that ministerial in
quiries into cases of alleged crimes under
| the bill be conducted in public.
Balfour opposed this.

Spain:
To the Agent of the associated Press-MY DEAR
SIR In the FL Paso Times of the 5th, which a
travelling friend just gave me- l find a telegram
referring to a ball that was held at the Spanish
Casino in the City of Mexico on the night of the
30th of last April. Believing that you have
been misinformed, take the liberty Of begging
from you a rectiheatlon, which, hope, you win
publish, as you did the telegram above men
toned. Here are the facts. and nothing else
They notified me, as one of the floor managers
that Mr.. Baron was dancing with Miss Bazaine in
rather too immodest manner AT once moved
to see, but got there just as the last notes OF
the waltz were dying away Losing thus the
chance to judge for myself, the people present
informed me what had been told already
thought it for the moment better TO make no re.
mark but later. when in the dining.room in
the presence of the daughter of an American
General, the Secretary of the club saw fit to give
Mr.. Baron hint of what the people were say
ing about him. This seemed to show a
bad tendency. When the writer, interfer
ing with calming words for the sake
best to establish peace; but Mr.. Baron did not
cease to believe himself offended, and went to
| hunt up the Spanish Minister. For the sake OF
order thought it best to follow him In com
gan rather warmly to tell how the Chief Secre
tary had offended the young ladies and him
self, and the Minister, instead OF trying TO quiet
| things down and avert an unpleasant scene
| took the part of Mr.. Baron. thought it ther
| my duty, for the sake of peace, to take the bel

firmly declined to leave. AT this time the
President of the club came and succeeded
| in taking away Mr. Baron, leaving the
| Spanish Minister alone with the witnesses of hi
| behavior. What the Spanish Colony thinks o
1 the Minister is not known. A commission t

was insulted by anybody. and thus ends tn,

New YORK, May 9th.-Captain Swan, of

so many vessels at sea. That day there was
heavy storm. Late in the afternoon a
huge meteor, looking like TWO balls of fire,
dropped into the sea close alongside, max
ing tremendous roaring. Before reaching
the water the upper atmosphere was dark
ened, while below, and on board, every
thing appeared like a sea of fire. The force
of the meteor striking the water caused
heavy breakers, which washed over the YES
sci, making her roll dangerously. The at
mosphere became uncomfortably warm,
and the air was full of sulphur Imme-
